Mode Reference

Reference creates from boards from various sources unlike Preview and Grid that read from a single source. For this reason the boards can act as an independant list of favorites from various folders and even from the internet to compose a mood board. Due to its nature these boards can help organize ideas and can also be archived for future reference even without the original sources being acessible anymore.
